A disappointing defeat to Argentinos Juniors last time out ending a run of three games unbeaten will mean a reaction is needed here for Colon who were getting back to their best prior to that. To rub salt into the wounds it was goalscorer Rodrigo Aliendro who received a red card just eight minutes later, leaving Colon without an important attacking outlet for this one. No wins in five games is a concern for Estudiantes who are struggling to put teams away when they are on top, having said that they are managing games well to enable them to pick up draws in that time. Estudiantes manager Ricardo Zielinski would normally be looking to Uruguayan attacker Manuel Castro to be the difference maker here with his seven goals so far but he looks to be remaining an absentee here. 1:1
